Pennsylvania did have slaves at one point. Most of them worked in plantations in southern PA like in rural areas near Lancaster, York, Lebanon, Gettysburg, and Chambersburg. The slaves in PA did not do the same work as what slaves in Virginia or South Carolina did. The slaves probably picked corn or wheat in PA.

Where all slaves from Africa?

In early America, mostly. In the world, absolutely not. Our word "slave" comes from the world "slav," a European (white) people who were apparently taken as slaves a lot back in the day. Slaves could also be captured enemy soldiers of any nation, especially in the ancient world, when slavery was extremely common. Later on, kidnapping African tribesmen became the most profitable form of slavery.
